In late 2017, Fullerton Health embarked on a major upgrade to the facilities at its Executive Health Screening Centres in Singapore. The improvement was driven by the healthcare providers’ goal to significantly improve customer care with a facility design that would transform patients’ health screening experience. The revolutionary patent-pending “Pod” design at Fullerton Executive Health Screening Centres aims to bring the medical tests to the patient. It features luxurious, individual pods where patients receive a variety of medical tests in private and in the comfort of the spacious seat, carried out by friendly and experienced nurses in the pod itself.
Under conventional health screening centres, patients undergo a series of medical tests and examinations, where the entire screening process may take as long as 3 hours (depending on the number of tests and patients) with the bulk of the time spent waiting in between, the whole process of which is lengthy and time-consuming.
Each Pod contains a luxurious built custom-designed leather armchair, a fold-out table surface, lockable storage compartment, an electronic tablet for entertainment, USB charging points, adjustable lighting, jacket hanging space, bottle/cup holders, a nurse call-button and a “Do Not Disturb” option. These allow customers to work, relax, read, eat, drink, surf the net or even rest during any intervals between testing. With the new ‘Pod’ design, patients now enjoy a personalised level of service, comfort and privacy during their health screening at Fullerton Health.
For all of these, Fullerton Healthcare won the Healthcare Asia Awards 2018 for Primary Care Provider of the Year, Patient Care Initiative of the Year, and Facilities Improvement Initiative of the Year.
